She was the daughter of Alexander and Elizabeth Meek Woods being the next youngest of a family eleven children. Born at the homestead in Harrisburg township, her childhood life was spent within a half mile of the place of her death. On Jan. 28, 1875, she became the wife of Jacob Leffler; and they established their home within a mile and a half of her father's home, and here they lived for twenty-one years. Later they purchased a farm on Vernon Prairie to which they moved in the autumn of 1896, and where they lived until the year 1906 when they purchased a home in Bonaparte intending to spend their declining years in comfort and ease, but on Oct. 9, Mr. Leffler was called to his maker. In the winter of the same year the family home was moved to Bonaparte where Mrs. Leffler lived until her last illness. Mr. and Mrs. Leffler became the parents of two daughter, Mrs. Myrtle Trumbo and Mrs. Lena Burnett, both of near Bonaparte, and who survive to realize their great loss. A nephew, Paul Woods, was taken into the home when an infant, his mother having died when he was one week old, and he lived with her until she went to her daughter's home. In early life she united with the Bonaparte Baptist church and continued a faithful member all her life. In August, 1927, she suffered a stroke of paralysis and since that time her health has been very poor, and it became necessary for her to be taken to the home of her daughter, Myrtle, who tenderly cared for her mother until she obeyed the summons of death. There remain to mourn her departure, her two daughters and foster son, two sisters, Mrs. Sarah L. Edmondson of Bonaparte and Mrs. Jessie F. Davis who lives on a farm near the childhood home; three grandchildren, Mrs. Estella Holcomb of Doueds, Mrs. Gertrude Hooper of Newton and Harold Burnett of Bonaparte, and two great-grandchildren, Viva Gene and B. J. Holcomb. There are also nephews, nieces and a host of friends. Funeral services were held at the Baptist church in Bonaparte on Friday afternoon, Rev. Melvin Pearce officiating. Interment in Bonaparte cemetery.
